Hitting out at Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal, BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj demanded on Wednesday that he break his silence on the alleged firing attempt at former Punjab Deputy CM Sukhbir Singh Badal at the Golden Temple premises.
Punjab can’t afford another dark era of terror, says former Chief Minister of the state.
Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader Sukhbir Singh Badal Wednesday narrowly escaped an assassination attempt when a gunman tried to shoot him inside the Golden Temple premises in Punjab's Amritsar.
The shooter targeted the former Punjab deputy chief minister while performing "seva" at the shrine as part of a religious punishment pronounced by the Shri Akal Takht Sahib.
The punishment was given to them for the “mistakes” committed by the SAD and its government in Punjab during their tenure from 2007 to 2017.
Angad, who was seen in the short film 'The List', said in a statement: "For me, family comes before anything else. It's my son's birthday and I wanted to make sure that they spend some time with their grandfather as well, because the bond they share is extremely special."
Many Sikh troops abandoned their regiments in the army, and several Sikhs resigned from civil administrative positions and returned Indian government honours.
Singh said on 24 April the 400th Prakash Purab of Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur would be celebrated in a grand manner in Panipat.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Thursday appealed to the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) to allow the state government to broadcast live the Gurbani recited at the Golden Temple in Amritsar. In a video message, the CM urged the SGPC to allow the state government to install the advanced broadcast technologies at Sri Darbar Sahib Amritsar.
The minister said Punjab being a border state, it is extremely necessary to maintain communal harmony here.
